Advantages: Easy money for struggling students Disadvantages: May be small amounts of travelling involved
Thousands of us embark on university life each year, but do we prepare ourselves for the financial struggle. As university life is a layed back, boozing experience many of us forget just how much money we are spending. We want quick, easy money while having some fun along the way. Hot recruit is the answer we are looking for.
It only takes minutes to register and once you are there it is a easy site to scroll through quickly. You can ask for job ... ...pages give lists of jobs, either tempory or full time, accompanied by estimated salaries.

I first visited this site about 3 weeks ago actually as I was in desperate need of a job. As everyone knows looking for a job these days is pretty hard! You can search a variety of jobs on this site ranging from retail to construction to crazy jobs!!! Under the crazy jobs section there is lots of funny and strange jobs. An example is a job for Sperm Donators needed in London which i thought was brilliant!! If only i was male eh! The best thing about ... ...also apply online for starring in game shows etc. But as well paid jobs there is also a few voluntary jobs and charity non profit jobs which was great. I visit this site daily to check on new jobs and would recommend it to you or anyone that was really desperate for a job now!!! What are you waiting for visit them now!

Advantages: Easy navigation, wide range of jobs and locations Disadvantages: Only that it doesn't do permanent jobs
I chose this service following an ad campaign on the Pepsi Network Chart. The ad highlighted that there is a CRAZY JOBS section, which was definitely worth looking at. Even advertises bungee jumping instructor jobs!
The site is really easy to use with various search options: Job type, hours wanted and area.
The Area section is particularly good because it can be narrowed down so much more. i.e. when you pick South east England - it's a pretty big ... ...This site then gives you a further option by county (although you don't have to use it). It also gives you the option of sortig the job by salary date posted or area (if you hadn't narrowed it down before).
All jobs can be applied for online and the job descriptions are very thorough.
It's got a great range of jobs too - not all temps want to work in admin. This really shows there is more to temping than the high street agencies offer.
Great too ...

Advantages: Easy to apply online, easy to navigate Disadvantages: Limited number of jobs available
Want an easy site that enables you to apply online? This could be the site for you.
I have been looking for a part-time job now for a few months (unsuccessfully). I began by writing to shops and other companies, but rarely even received an acknowledgment of my application. This was when I turned my searching to the internet...
It took me a while to come across hotrecruit.co.uk. I trawled through many recruitment agencies - Fish4jobs, Reed... you ... ...concentrated on full-time work, which is fine if that's what your looking for. But I wasn't.
The number of part-time jobs on these other websites were very limited. I used Google and Ask Jeeves to find job agencies that actually concentrated on part-time work. This led me to the likes of jobs4students, and student123.com, but these just disappointed me further. Even the selection here was limited.
Eventually I came across Hotrecruit. I couldn't ...
